Zero human casualties - a city of 80,000 evacuated safely. Heard lots of stories of people getting stranded on side of the highway and others stopping to help them. A few of the big oil companies have shifted their employees out and are making to room in their camps for the evacuees.
The scenes are like something from a disaster movie.
Very close to the tar sands as well
I suppose it's a given that a gas station will just explode and make matters worse, but how much extra impact does a gas station explosion add to the inferno?
To put it in perspective it is an area the size of County Louth or75% of County Armagh that is on fire.

Not that big a loss then.
